Can't access game center using nickname from second account

I have two Apple IDs associated with two different e-mail addresses.  I set up a game center account with one address and another account with the second address and different ID.  After my ipad had to be reset following a crash during the upgrade to ios7 I have been unable to access one of my game center accounts with most of my games on it. Is there any way I can log into the game center just using my game center nickname. I have tried a number of options given on different forums but the message I get when trying to use my old nickname is that it has already been taken.

Hey Aldy,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your Apple ID.  I would be concerned about this too, and I have a couple of suggestions for the issue you are experiencing with your account.
It sounds like you are not getting the email to reset your password.  If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.

  • Downloaded IOS 7.1 and now can't access Game Center or friends list in the games I play on ipad.  What is the fix?

    I downloaded IOS 7.1 on my ipad.  Now I can't open Game Center or access my friends lists in the games I play.  My ipad is about 3 years old.  What is the fix?

    Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1   Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

  • Can I access printer options using airprint from my ipad?

    How can I access airprint printer options, such as cancel or page setup?

    You can cancel a print job from the Print Monitor. On the AirPrint Basics web page take a look at the

    There is no page setup in iOS. Some apps such as Pages let you pick a page size. Some apps fo not.

  • I can't access music purchased using an old ISP account

    I just transfered my library on iTunes to a new PC and also changed Internet Service provider, now I can't access my old music purchased under the old ISP account, any ideas?

    Hey there,
    Have you authorized your new computer yet? To do this, head to Store and click on Authorize computer. Then enter your account name and password in and see if that helps.
    Here is a bit more on authorizing and de-authorizing computers in iTunes.

    i have lost my iphone 5. The person who has my phone right now is still using my game center id to play one of my game that i have in that phone named "Clash of Clan". Could you guys help me to sign out this icloud's ID and game center's ID from that phone for me, or anyone knows how to do this, please mail back to me. Id : "[email protected]" Thanks.

    As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account.  It's assigned when the account is created.  But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password.  Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
    You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
    I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't.  Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it.  If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.

    The Game Center app is pre installed and cannot be removed from the device.
    Best thing to do is move it to the last available screen.
    Hold down the Game Center app until all the apps jiggle then sliide the Game Center app to the right from one screen to the next. This requires a bit of finesse, but it's doable.
    Press the Home button one time to stop the apps from jiggling.
    For the Apple ID issue, try resetting.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then try your Apple ID and password for the Game Center app.

  • How can I access my home security DVR from the internet?

    My Time Capsule (as a router and not a bridge) blocks me from accessing my home security DVR from the internet.  I can access it from other computers connected to my LAN but not from the internet.  I guess it's a firewall setting issue.  I can't add the home security application to the list of firewall allowed incoming connections since it's a Windows app that I cannot install on my Mac.  On the other hand, the app is installed on my old PC but I can't access the Mac firwall settings from the PC and add the security app (If that's the problem).
    My DVR is connected to a Netgear switch which is connected to the Time Capsule which is connected to a Cisco modem provided by Comcast. I thought one of the modem ports had to be opened by Comcast. That was not the issue.  After spending 2 hours on the phone with Comcast going in circles talking to 10 different overseas agents, they concluded the Netgear switch was blocking me from accessing the DVR.  I think they are wrong and that it's a Mac firewall problem.  HELP!!!  Does anyone know what could be the problem and how to solve it?

    Did you forward the required ports in the TIme Capsule? If not it won't work.. it has nothing to do with firewall unless the DVR is plugged into the Mac. If it is plugged into a switch you need to lock the IP of the DVR and find out what ports are required.. usually just port 80, ie html.. but it could be some others.
    Since Apple do not use upnp to open ports.. the TC will have to manually be provided with the ports.. Apple use PMP-NAT that is not used by the rest of the known world.. Just to ensure you stay in the camp.

  • I can't view game center games

    I can login to game center but i can not see my games.  I used to be able to see them ok.  Now alot of my games won't load properly.  I have reloaded games etc, but nothing is helping. Help.

    get your game center account set up, then go to the Real Racing app and start it up. You should get a little game center pop up at the top of the screen saying "Welcome back (your username)". Then Real Racing should appear in your games on Game Center

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Game Center and sign out and sign back in

  • Game Center: Different Language from the rest of my phone

    Hey everyone,
    A few weeks ago I noticed that the language of game center was different from what I had set it to. I would get the normal "Welcome back, *my name*" on the top that pops up showing that it's linked to game center, which is fine. Except instead of English it was in some weird unknown language.
    I've gone through and reset my phone languages to English and tried correcting the problem like this. I have a pretty good understanding of my phone settings. It seems to be something that I just can't change! I don't want to have to reset my phone unless absolutely necessary.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, maybe there is a setting that I'm missing here or something!

  • Hello there, is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)

    The Question says it all really.
    Is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)?
    I remember my Username on Gamcenter but due to the recent update of iOS7, it is only letting me Sign in through my APPLE ID - which i have forgotten over time. I wish to recover my account recently because I remember purchasing Gems on the game 'Clash of Clans' and I wish I could restart playing the game.
    Many thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.

  • If I copy a CD (either music or audio) on my Windows based Pc can I access the copy using itunes?

    If i copy a Cd (either music or audio) on my Windows based PC can I access the copy using itunes.  I have a ipod Nano, 7th generation.

    You should use iTunes to "rip" (encode) the songs directly into your iTunes library from the CDs.  This article provides a good description of how that is done using iTunes.
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1156861/howto_rip_cds.html
    If you use some other program to encode the content on those CDs, you can add any audio files that are in a format that iTunes can play (such as MP3 and AAC) to your iTunes library.  "Windows Media" files are not playable by iTunes, but the Windows version of iTunes can convert them while importing (as long as the files do not use DRM).

  • Can we access popularity trends using client side script?

    Hi, 
     I have a requirement to show the hit count for my image library's item(s). When ever I am opening an image from the image library, I just wanted to show the hit counts. For this I have created a Number column and updating this column by using CSOM
    when ever hit happens to that particular item. 
    The problem arises here, for visitors ( who has read only permission to the site) I am not able to update the column due to permission issue. Since we all know that we can't elevate the privilege from client side script. And also our design says that we
    can't give the contribute permission to all the users at the library level. How can we update the count at item level even when the visitors are opening an item from the image library? 
    Please help me... 
    Thanks in advance
